4. Peace of mind instead of confusion.

5. Self respect instead of self contempt.

6. Self confidence instead of helplessness.

7. The respect of others instead of pity and contempt.

8. A clean conscience instead of a sense of guilt.

9. Real friendship instead of loneliness.

10. A clean pattern of life instead of a purposeless existence.

11. The love and understanding of our families instead of their doubts and fears.

12. The freedom of a happy life instead of the bondage of an addicted obsession.
